# SeaBookings

> SeaBookings organises private boat events, corporate events at sea and private boat charters, and runs an online marketplace for boat tours and watersports. It was founded in 2013 in Lagos, Portugal. It lists over 1,000 sea experiences from more than 150 local operators, mainly in Portugal and Spain, plus Greece, Italy, Croatia, the United States, Mexico and Brazil.

How booking works:

- **Private events, corporate events and large group charters:** booked through an inquiry form on the page. SeaBookings replies with a tailored proposal covering the boat, catering, drinks, music and extras. Email: info@seabookings.com. For events, book 3–4 weeks ahead.
- **Private charters for small groups (2–20 people) and public tours:** most can be booked instantly through a GetYourGuide booking widget on the page. SeaBookings is a GetYourGuide partner. Prices, availability and cancellation terms come from that widget.
- **Prices:** listed in euros (EUR) as "from" prices, per group or boat for private charters and per person for shared tours. They were checked on 8 October 2026 and change with season, date and options.
- **Private charters include:** a skipper, fuel and insurance, unless the entry says otherwise.
- **Cancellation:** unless an entry says otherwise, instant-booking tours offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
- **Weather:** sea trips depend on the weather. Operators reschedule or refund the trip if conditions are unsafe.
- **Best season:** April to October. Lisbon, the Algarve and Madeira run all year.
